The Gabh le Gaeilge DVD and information pack, will be sent to teachers in English speaking schools, to help them promote Irish as a choice for the GCSE. The pack is aimed at students between 11-14 years of age, with little Irish, so simple clear Irish is used throughout the DVD, and the rhythm of the DVD is suitably timed.

In the DVD, Caoimhe Ní Chonchoille introduces speakers from different backgrounds, who speak about the Irish language in their lives.

Each speaker mentions that they would not have had the same advantages without Irish, and that Irish helped them a lot from a personal and professional development perspective. Caoimhe then informs the viewer about summer colleges, Gaeltacht areas, and the GCSE exam.

The DVD Gabh le Gaeilge will be officially launched on Friday 29th October in Seomra Onóra, at the INEC in the Gleneagle Hotel in Killarney. If you would like to attend this event, please let us know by e-mailing us at: gabhlegaeilge@gaelport.com.
